What is this post about?
In summary—Mr.Lau had an urge to watch the fireworks celebration in KLCC ended up in a racist attack by a group of teenagers. It was posted on Facebook.
According to Mr. Lau, he and a friend of his planned to go join Merdeka Eve celebration at KLCC, they walked through well lit place and was attacked by a group of Malay teenagers. They ended up with injuries and no one cares about them, to make it worse—the teenagers says “Baliklah ke negara asal”
Mr. Lau even had problems making a police report.
This shows how inefficient the government bodies are in handling these racism problem. I know, racism is happening in every coutries, and it’s difficult to banish them completely.
However in my opinion, we should 大事化小，小事化無. Life is too short on hating someone.
Remember guys, this is only a minority of people are causing troubles. I believe 99% majorities are harmless and we all wished to live in harmony. Don’t get agitated easily and revenge on 99% of them. Remember, most of us are harmless.
Lastly, I would like to wish all Malaysian a Happy 53th Merdeka. Our freedom did not come easily.
Malaysia is my home and I love this country 
(despite how sucky is streamyx…. heh)

I totally disagree with your suggestion to 大事化小，小事化無. The reason being that if these matters keep being swept under the carpet (which is the effect of 大事化小，小事化無), then those who perpetrate these acts, will think that they can and will always get away with it ... and they will be more brazen about it and will do it again and again with an escalation in the violence. And the likelihood would be that they will rope in more friends to do the same.
I am not suggesting to retaliate violence with violence but such matters must be brought forward, highlighted and debated .. AND the authorities must be MADE to react positively and swiftly to nip such aspiring anarchists in the bud. Are we going to wait until Malaysia is overrun by gangsters and terrorists before the silent majority is going to say anything ? By then, it will be too late ....
